To fr/// [rf/tom it may concern,.-

Be it known that I, JAMES P. STUBBLE- j FIELD, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Buchanan, 1n the county of Henry and State ofTennessee, have invented new and f useful Improvements 1n ToiletCases,of,`

which the following is a specification.

My invention 1s a toilet-case, and has for its object certain novelfeatures of construction hereinafter described and claimed.

The invention consists in a clothes-brush l which is formed with apocket to receive a hair-brush, comb, and other toilet articles.

ln the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of the invention.Eig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view on the line 2 2 of Eig. l. Fig.I is a plan view with the hair-brush removed. Fig. Je is a plan viewshowing the case open. Fig. 5 is a cross-section on the line 5 5 ofFig. 1. Fig. 6 is an edge view.

Referring specifically to the drawings, the head of the clothes-brush isin two pieces, which are indicated at and 11, respectively, and areconnected by hinges 12. A spring-catch 13 or other suitable device isprovided for holding the parts closed. The

part 11 is formed with a pocket or recess 1-1 to receive a comb 15 and atooth-brush 16, these articles being placed against the walls of therecess and held in position by pins 17 or other suitable means.

said opening corresponds to that of a hairbrush 19, which Vlits snuglyin said opening. The bristles extend into the pocket 14. The back of thebrush extends flush with the outer surface of the top wall of thepocket, and the brush is secured by catches or other suitable devices20. A recess 21 is made in the end wall of the pocket under the handleof the brush 1), and a coiled spring 22 is The top wall of the pockethas an opening 18, and the outline of l placed in the recess and bearson said brushhandle. Then the catches 2() are disengaged, the springpushes the brush-handle out of the recess, so that it can be readilygrasped and the brush removed.

The part 10 of the clothes-brush which covers the pocket 14 is fittedwith a mirror 23, which is positioned to register' with that portion ofthe openingl 1S which is occupied by the head of the brush 1), so thatwhen said brush is removed the mirror will be exposed, as shown in Fig.3. The part 1S is also provided with an elastic band 24 to hold a bottleof perfume or other small toilet prerequisites.

Having thus described my invention, what is claimed as new, and desiredto be secured by Letters Patent, is-

1. A brush having a head comprising hinged sections, one of saidsections having a pocket, the top wall of which has an opening, a secondbrush fitting in the opening, catches for securing said brush, and aspring in the pocket bearing on the brush for pushing it lfrom theopening when the catches arc dis i engaged.

2. A brush having a head comprising hinged sections, one of saidsections having a pocket, the top wall of which has an opening,

a second brush removably secured in the opening, and a mirror carried bythe other section and visible through the aforesaid opening when thebrush is removed therefrom.
